How are you inserting your signature? is it manually? Do you have some kind of keyboard shortcut to insert it?

It’s not a bad feature to ensure that eg if there’s a malicious process running on your computer it can’t send all your signal data to whomever

Whole disk encryption wouldn’t change your daily usage, no. It just means that when you boot your PC you have to enter your passphrase. And if your device becomes unbootable for whatever reason, and you want to access your drive, you’ll just have to decrypt it first to be able to read it/write to it, e.g. if you want to rescue files from a bricked computer. But there’s no reason not to encrypt your drive. I can’t think of any downsides.

I’m not trying to be a dick (it just comes naturally), but I wonder if there’s a connection between antibac wipes, sanitiser and the need for moisturiser…

I don’t use the wipes on my hands and I usually don’t use the sanitiser, it’s just if I can’t get soap and water and need to clean my hands. I’ve still needed moisturiser when I’ve not used sanitiser anyway.

In any case, the moisturiser fixes the problem, so I don’t see any downside tbh

Quite a lot tbh.

• Water bottle to stay hydrated
• Nail clippers because if I don’t carry them I pick my hangnails and my fingers would be perpetually bleeding lol
• Lip balm cause I get dry lips
• Moisturiser cause I get dry hands
• Tissues
• A multi-tool
• USB-C charger
• Wallet
• Keys
• Antibac wipes
• Hand sanitiser too lol
• Watch
• Lighter

Obviously it’s a long list but these are small objects so it’s not really a lot when you’re carrying a bag.

I usually don’t carry a phone or anything like that if I don’t need it where I’m going; normally I can avoid it. But if I need a phone, laptop, etc where I’m going then I’ll have that on me too.

LMAO the part where it just starts displaying a bunch of pills flying at the screen

Just a lager idc

I don’t think there is a “dead giveaway”. Plenty of kids can pass as adults online and plenty of adults seem like kids online. And sometimes with stuff like word usage/grammar/etc you can’t tell if it’s a child or someone who doesn’t speak English very well or maybe an English-speaking adult who happens to type like that. There’s a lot of different people in the world.

Wow, that was really interesting. Thanks for typing that up

Forensic data on you is already pretty easy to obtain unless you’re taking special effort to avoid it being taken. Also when you get arrested they take whatever biometrics they like. The info on you those DNA testing companies are getting is info already easily available to the government. I guess if you’re concerned about your DNA being used to tailor ads to you, not just to criminalise you, it could be an issue, but idk I don’t think your DNA can really predict what ads will be effective on you.

I like how simple and fast runit is. And the added security is nice.

More specifically, it’s the name used by the attacker. Could well be multiple people, or if it’s one person (still almost certainly state-funded, but the state can fund one person), a fake name nevertheless. We have no info about this person’s real life identity. They used a VPN in Singapore, and some people have looked at the times of the commits to try guess a timezone, though that’s not foolproof as they could’ve just been a nocturnal person, or even tried to schedule commits to happen at a time to suggest they’re in a different timezone, though I think the latter is unlikely and overkill.

I think I’ve found myself wishing manpages were more detailed far more often than I’ve found myself wishing they were shorter. In any case a man page or help text should put the most important info/FAQs at the top.

There are plenty of guides on how to do a PR online

Yeah afaik any AMD card should work out of the box with the Linux kernel, which includes AMD drivers. Never had any problems with my AMD card. Even on Nvidia it worked, admittedly proprietary Nvidia graphics driver updates frequently broke my graphics but downgrading (in a tty or even a chroot if I can’t do it graphically, I think I only ever needed a tty though I don’t think I ever needed to chroot because of an nvidia update) fixed it, and using outdated Nvidia drivers was not too big of a deal, I didn’t notice game performance issues.

And gaming on Linux is completely fine if you don’t have any kind of funky setup (like musl or whatever). The majority of my steam library has native linux versions, those that don’t play fine with Wine/Proton.

Tbh Manjaro has made my system unbootable before with a system update, base Arch has never done that for me. I think Manjaro is just poorly constructed, or maybe it’s bc of all the packages that come pre installed with it causing problems. Minimal installs ftw

By the sounds of it it was an organised social engineering attack. Almost certainly “Jia Tan” is not a real person, or if it is a real person then it’s a case of stolen identity. Even if I were being threatened to put a backdoor in some software I wouldn’t do it under my real name.

If you’re spending money on a book you may as well get a physical one.

Obsidian is proprietary

Yes, I don’t see why not. What else am I gonna do with my organs when I’m dead?
